Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) is set to host its 121st Open Auction on October 24, offering the opportunity to purchase 60 exclusive vehicle plate numbers. These unique plates, ranging from 2- to 5-digit numbers, will be auctioned off at the Dubai Hilton Al Habtoor City Hotel. Interested bidders can register their interest through the RTA's website or at Customer Happiness Centres located in Umm Ramool, Deira, and Al Barsha.
The available plate numbers include codes such as AA, BB, CC, H, U, V, W, X, Y, and Z, as well as specific two-digit numbers like BB 80, BB 18, and CC 44, along with a selection of 2-, 3-, 4-, and 5-digit numbers. Interested parties must have a traffic file in Dubai, provide a refundable Dh25,000 security deposit cheque, and pay a non-refundable fee of Dh120 to participate in the auction.
Upon winning a bid, buyers must pay an additional 5 per cent VAT along with the cost of the plate within 10 working days of the auction date to avoid losing their security deposit. There is no limit to the number of plates a bidder can acquire, subject to approved terms and conditions.
The last major auction of car plates took place in December 2025, with RTA selling plates worth a total of Dh109 million. The highest-styled plate in the upcoming auction is number 12, with the last auction hitting the Dh109 million mark.
